Nevertheless Larkin ‘got it back in the end’ which illustrates Larkin not fully conforming to her results in rejection. In the ultimate stanza Larkin criticizes his own personality ‘I was too selfish… easily bored to love’. This could suggest he is too simply mundane and egocentric for someone to love him. Alternatively it could be appear that Larkin is presenting women in a unenthusiastic light as he could also be suggesting that there can’t be one women with the right appearance and personality therefore he is selfish as he needs two women to meet his requirements. This point is reinforced in the second stanza where he describes meeting ‘beautiful twice’ which could demonstrate he met two sides of beauty one in a character and one
She thinks that women have to have sex in order to be women. Lilith knew she was different from a young girl. She never let anyone, not even the little kids she played with say anything they pleased to. Even if it meant “She get a stiff slap”. Lilith holds herself to a high standard which Circe tries to knock out of her.

Candy also says “Curley’s married . . . a tart” which shows how Steinbeck wants to present Curley’s wife which is in a very crude manner. The word “tart” which shows the impression and effect Curley’s wife has on other workers on the ranch.
Already, the reader is introduced to the idea that Curley's wife is an immoral "tart" which is strengthened upon her first appearance, which follows shortly after. She is first seen in the doorway of the bunkhouse , asking about the location of her husband, which is soon revealed as being a weak excuse to interact with the ranchers. She is wearing a "red cotton house dress" and a pair of mules decorated with "bouquets of red ostrich feathers." emphasisinig her sexual presence as the colour red, which is expressed repeatedly when Curley's wife's clothes are described, is often reffered to as the colour of love and passion. Additionally, the bouquets of ostrich feathers, also described as red, on the insteps of her shoes would have been extremely expensive in the times Of Mice and Men was set; and that Curley's wife not only wears them on her feet but in the middle of the 'Dust Bowl' expresses her desperate need for attention as she is willing to possibly ruin her best shoes in order to entice the ranchers, despite the fact that she has a husband.
She's the only female character in the novel, and she's never given a name and is only referred to in reference to her husband. The men on the farm refer to her as a “tramp,” a “tart,” and a “looloo.” Dressed in fancy, feathered red shoes, she represents the temptation of female sexuality in a male-dominated world. She is a simple object or possession belonging to her husband and this shows the severity of the sexual discrimination in America in 1930s. I believe Steinbeck would have thought of her not as a person but a symbol. Almost everyone on the ranch is lonely and she symbolizes this.
And so begins the judgment with a woman who Sammy believes to be about fifty with nothing better to do than scold him for accidentally ringing up the same item twice. Sammy goes on to call her a “witch” and a “cash register watcher” (348). The judgment seen in “The Lone Ranger..” is different because Victor is racially profiled in a few instances ,whereas, Sammy’s judging is internalized. The three girls walk into the A&P and Sammy spots them immediately. He goes on to describe them, which is the content of the majority of the story, by saying one is chubby with a berry face, one was tall, and the other was not tall but she was the queen.
The intention of making the reader perceive her early on as a ‘tart’ foreshadows that something later is going to happen and there could be trouble. Curley's wife's loneliness has altered her behaviour towards others tremendously, making her insecure and excessively flirtatious. The isolation and the intense
The king's semi-barbaric method of administering justice was quite ironic. Behind one door was a beautiful woman hand-picked by the king and behind the other was a fierce tiger. We know who the lady is behind the door. We also know that the daughter really hates her as it says in this quote, “She hated the woman who blushed and trembled behind the silent door.” The offender would be placed in an arena where his only way out would be to go through one of two doors. Even though throughout the story we have only witnessed the princess as non barbaric, let et us not forget the "savage blood" that coursed through her and the "barbaric" ancestry she came from, and the fact that she hated the woman behind the door.
